I would appreciate all comments both good and bad regarding photoshop skillz & setup of the car... Keep in mind that the car is dropped on Eibach's and only looks high cuz my fenders are rolled all around and because of the low angle with which I took the pics...

Thanks

Car looks great. I love the Advans, going to get a set of those some day. Let me know if you want to sell them.

As far as the photoshop goes, I am not sure that the background blur is more distracting than enhancing. It might also help to play around with the quickmask setting and get the masks a little closer to the subject. the key to running filters is to use them judiciously. I have always felt that the best photoshop guys did work that noone could see. The result is just pics that really "pop" and you cant tell why. Make sure the levels and contrast settings are adjusted and make your contrast and colors push the subject.

Try some gradients on the masking, so mabye the background is more blurred than the foreground, or have the saturation decrease as it goes back in the photo. Those will increase the foreground/background contrast and pop your car.

Paul,

Post the first pic before you did anything to it. I have a slow day today and would like to play with it, if that is okay with you. I'll repost the altered image after lunch.

I'll apply some of the things I talked about in my post and we'll see if we can show off those advans.
